Lateral High Knee Skip

The lateral high knee skip is a variation of the high knee skip exercise that incorporates lateral movement to engage different muscle groups and improve overall agility and coordination. Begin by standing with your feet together and your arms relaxed by your sides. Start by hopping laterally (sideways) to one side, pushing off with both feet simultaneously. As you jump to the side, lift your knees up towards your chest, driving them as high as possible. Upon landing on the opposite side, immediately transition into another lateral hop while lifting your knees towards your chest. Continue alternating between hopping to the left and right sides, maintaining a steady rhythm and focusing on driving your knees up with each skip. Utilize your arms to help propel you sideways, swinging them in a natural motion to assist with balance and momentum. Keep your arms bent at the elbows and close to your body, allowing them to move freely in coordination with your legs. Keep your core engaged throughout the exercise to stabilize your body and maintain balance. Land softly on the balls of your feet with each hop to absorb shock and reduce impact on your joints. Keep your chest up and your gaze forward to help maintain proper posture and alignment. Breathe naturally throughout the exercise, inhaling and exhaling in a rhythm that feels comfortable for you. Avoid holding your breath, as this can lead to decreased performance and increased fatigue. Perform lateral high knee skips for a set amount of time (e.g., 30 seconds to 1 minute) or a certain number of repetitions (e.g., 20 reps per side).
